GAL: I have a wine dinner tonight. Tonight it's California, and they'll bring in the vintner; he'll give a spiel throughout dinner as we have different wines with each course. The pairings are always excellent. I always enjoy these dinners. At the first one, I was a little anxious about the company and how I would fit in, but by now I've learned that these people are pretty comfortable in their own skin, and that in itself is so relaxing.

Last month it was a sake dinner. I was skeptical, but now I've been schooled. 3 out of 4 were very good.
Sake makes me hurl. It used to be that tequila and sake were probably the ONLY two alcoholic drinks I couldn't stand (and most, I really enjoy), and I've since developed a taste for tequila as I've tried some much better ones.
I have never - let me repeat: NEVER - met a sake I liked.
But I'm willing to try anything once. Or, I guess, a recommended version of something I've never liked ... once.
Pour the sake.
And, Starsky, I haven't been a fan of tequila since my late-high-school days (hurl!) But recently, I was introduced to Patron. It's amazing what top-shelf tequila can do to minimize the bad taste from high school. Still, you'll never catch me shelling out that kinda cash for a bottle of Platinum Petron. I'll stick to my $10 bottles of wine! Lol.
